Back to Basics: The Must-Have Cardigan

Jul 6, 2021

If your office is anything like mine, the temperature is never right.  In the winter, it’s cold.  In the summer, it’s cold for an entirely different reason.  So having a great collection of toppers — cardigans, blazers, etc. — is critical.  And this cardigan is one that I’ve talked about before, but I cannot recommend enough times.

This J.Crew Juliette Cardigan has such a sophisticated look to it.  It dresses up jeans or leggings, and it takes dresses and work separates to a new level.  Oh, and did I mention it’s 29% off today?

The quality of this sweater is write-home worthy.   The weight is heavier than most cardigans you see these days.  The pockets are deep enough for a cell phone.  And I’ve worn my grey one dozens of times this year, and it is holding up beautifully.

The sweater comes in sizes XXS – 3X.  I have the small in the grey; it’s a little oversized, but not too big.  So I finally bought the black today (thanks, sale), and I bought the XS for a slimmer fit.

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
